Order UK background checks from your AI assistant: introducing the 321GoCheck MCP server
Published · 5 min read
HR teams increasingly work through AI assistants: Microsoft Copilot in Teams and Outlook, Claude, ChatGPT, and the AI agents built into HR and applicant tracking systems. Today 321GoCheck becomes available inside them. Our new MCP server lets an assistant price, order and follow UK background checks on your 321GoCheck account, in plain language.
What is an MCP server?
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants use outside services safely. An MCP server describes the actions a service offers; the assistant (the MCP client) calls them when you ask it to. Microsoft, Anthropic, OpenAI and many developer tools support it, so one 321GoCheck connection works across all of them.
What you can ask
- “Order a Standard Package with a basic criminal record check for Jane Smith, [email protected].”
- “Which of my background checks are overdue?”
- “What's the status of the checks for our new warehouse team?”
- “Send Sam his invitation again.”
Behind each request the assistant uses the same steps as our client app: it lists your packages, prices the order, and once you agree, places it. Each candidate is emailed an invitation and completes their part on their phone, and you can follow every check, stage by stage, with an expected completion date.
Built so you stay in control
- You approve each assistant by signing in to 321GoCheck, and choose whether it can only see your orders or also place them.
- Nothing is ordered until you confirm. The assistant must show you the checks, the candidates and the total including VAT first.
- Candidates' documents, report contents and referee answers are never shared with the assistant. It sees names, emails and progress; reports open in the client app.
- Every action is logged, and you can disconnect an assistant at any time from your API dashboard.
For developers and HR tech partners
If you build HR software or AI agents, the same server is your quickest way to add UK background checks: a remote MCP server over Streamable HTTP, OAuth 2.1 or API keys, and a free sandbox key that prices real orders without placing them. The full tool reference and examples are on our developer page.
